THE DUKE Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 One of my favorite Bengals of all time. It's the right move, but still a sad day. He was a tremendous player, and is an even better person. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soflbillsfan Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Definitely an end of an era with that team as both big name stars are gone in Green and Atkins. Wonder where Atkins would go as I think he can still perform on a rotational situation. Would like to see him in Buffalo but I doubt it happens. I could see Minnesota but not sure where they are at in the position and cap space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are both primarily bigger power players so there’s certainly a need for a quick penetrating 3T and I’d welcome it as Zimmer loves a deep DL rotation. Not sure Atkins would be on board as a part time player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iknowcool Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Damn, I would love to add him to our defense. We need another leader on that side of the ball and Atkins would pair perfectly with Derrick Brown and Bravvion Roy. It would give the Panthers one of the most flexible fronts in the NFL too.

vegas492 Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 He could wreck games next to Clark inside in GB. Great player, great person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOSteelers56 Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 I think Geno has a little juice left in him. I'm sure he's going to make his new team happy for a year or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to see him rotate with Oliver in Buffalo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was playing hurt last year, then maybe, but he was baaaaaaaaad last year. He had also been regressing since 2017 even before falling off a cliff last year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had also been regressing since 2017 even before falling off a cliff last year. Also had 23.5 sacks since 2017, I'll trust him as well as my doctors, if he can go, I'd most certainly give him a shot. I'd just keep him on a 20-25 per game pitch count. Plus I heard he was disgruntled over his decreased (and all of the veterans) role and it could have affected his play. Look at Dunlap, he left and looked rejuvenated.
